Can I operate this unit by hooking it up to a 30 or 50 lb propane bottle? Thank you

Yes you can. I suggest having two tanks with a bypass regulator for uninterrupted service. One tank empties, switch bypass to full tank and fill up empty tank at your leisure.

35000 BTU is a large volume of Propane usage. You will need at least a 5-Gallon Propane bottle and you also need a regulator that can support a 35000 BTU appliance. Most BBQ Regulators are not big enough to do this, But Some are, like those for Turkey Fryers and 4-burner BBQs. You can find these at Home Depot, etc.. An RV Propane system is adequate. Go to the Kozy World website and download the manual.

weber makes a model that is designed specifically to hook up to an in ground gas supply instead of using a propane bottle. i bought a weber and they packed up the in ground gas supply model. I had it half put together before i recognized that it was not the right model. i would not try and convert a propane bottle to in ground as the pressure and connections are different, so is the gas. so be sure you get the right type, bottled gas or in ground gas supply.

Yes you can using an adapter. watch this on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWmQYYhTFCg Here is the thing, it may be a little more bulkier than you want BUT you can refill the small propane bottles and save $$$$.

Yes - I use the propane tank from my grill. I use this unit to brew beer - it works great.

Yes, proper hookup to any size tank you like. You do need a regulator and you really shouldn't have the tank close to the heater (against code). This little unit really cranks out the heat!

Yes it comes with a propane hose which can connect to 20Lb, 30lb or 40lb propane bottle just fine. Have not tried it on a larger propane bottle but I would think there would be no problem connecting to larger bottles/tanks with the proper connecting valves.

I have several of these heaters installed at 5400 feet and they all work fine. As far as bottle size goes, propane has 91,000 btu/gallon and this heater is rated at 10,000 btu/hr, so it will operate on high for approximately 9 hours per gallon, or 45 hours on a 5 gallon bottle. Choose your bottle size according to your usage needs.

Yes Stran, you can hook it with propane tank. I am using it in my hand made Tandoor and use my BBG grill tank in it

Yes. I had my gas co. hook mine to my 250 gal. propane underground tank. They tied into the high pressure line just before the regulator next to my house and installed a tamper resistant valve with a quick connect on it. I have run it this way. Works fine. Would highly recommend you get your gas co. to do this. They need to see if the high pressure line is big enough. To hook it up this way also voids the warranty.

This heater requires at least a 100 pound propane tank for use. It cannot be used with a 20 lb. BBQ tank.

Not without getting a kit for that from the vendor. But you do want to ask yourself why and where you'd hook it up. I find it's a lot safer to use a propane bottle setup because it lets me move the fryer to a place farther away from the house. I have a natural gas hookup for the grill, but that's right next to the house. With the fryer there's also the mess issue. I find it's better to use the fryer away from the patio so it doesn't leave oil spots all over the flagstone.

Not to my knowledge. There is nothing to hook propane up to, only two round holes to place gel fuel.

I believe it can be hooked up to a larger propane tank, with the correct adapter. I may do this at some point but the little tanks last a while and they are only about $3.50 each.

My husband is in the process of getting this hooked up. We purchased the transfer switch so it is a little more involved. Our hope was to run a hook up from our 500 gal tank but some of his coworkers (hospital maintenance workers) said there could be an issue with pressure from our large home propane tank so they referred him to our propane supplier. You might want to call your company and speak with an expert. We haven't made the call yet.

I am assuming you are asking if you can hook this line up to your home propane tank in order to run a grill. I would say yes if you have a licensed plumper to run a hard line away from the tank with the proper fittings.

You have to use 20 pound tank . It comes with a 5 foot hose and regulator for 20 pound tank . You can get adapter to connect to 1 pound canister. I have mine set up to connect to my camping trailer gas supply . It work great any way you set it up.
